Highlights of Xi's speech at world political party dialogue

Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee, delivered a speech Friday at the opening ceremony of CPC in Dialogue with World Political Parties High-Level Meeting in Beijing.

China will not 'export' Chinese model

Xi said that the CPC will neither "import" foreign models of development, nor "export" the Chinese model and ask other countries to "copy" the Chinese practice.

He reiterated that the CPC strives for both the well-being of the Chinese people and human progress.

Therefore, besides doing its own thing, the CPC will create more opportunities for the world by promoting China's development, said Xi.

The CPC, as the biggest political party in the world, will also explore the law of social development for mankind through its own practice and share it with other countries, according to Xi.

New model of party-to-party relations

Xi proposed to develop a new model of party-to-party relations, in which political parties seek common grounds while shelving differences, respect and learn from one another.

Political parties of different countries should work together for an international network of cooperation and exchange in various forms and at multiple levels, he said.

With an open vision and broad mind, the CPC is willing to carry out dialogues, exchanges and cooperation with peoples and political parties of other countries, he said.

High-level political dialogue platform

Xi suggested that the CPC in Dialogue with World Political Parties High-Level Meeting be institutionalized and developed into a high-level political dialogue platform of broad representation and international influence.

Community with shared future for mankind

Xi said the initiative of building a community with a shared future for mankind is being transformed from a concept into action.

"I'm delighted to see that the friendly cooperation between China and other countries is increasingly expanding and the concept of a community with a shared future for mankind is gaining support and endorsement from an increasing number of people," Xi said.

The Belt and Road Initiative is the practice of the concept, Xi said, adding the Belt and Road has become a huge cooperation platform for countries concerned to realize their common development.
